Ukrain war is not anything but “The Pentagon’s profit machine”

“The real war profiteers are the U.S. defense companies, thriving on chaos around the world.”

The Double Standards at Play

• India buys oil to secure affordable energy for 1.4 billion people. It’s a strategic necessity, not a geopolitical endorsement.
• Meanwhile, Western nations—including the U.S. and EU—continue to trade with Russia in various forms, including uranium and other commodities.
• The Pentagon’s budget has ballooned, with billions flowing to defense contractors who profit from prolonged conflict.
• Navarro’s framing ignores the fact that NATO expansion and Western arms shipments are central to the war’s escalation.

🧨 The Real Laundromat?

is tarriffs Modis war

Not quite, Sharda—but it’s a provocative phrase that’s been thrown around recently, especially by Peter Navarro, a former White House trade adviser under Donald Trump. He controversially labeled the Ukraine conflict as “Modi’s war,” arguing that India’s continued purchase of discounted Russian oil indirectly funds Russia’s military efforts in Ukraine. His logic? That American taxpayers end up footing the bill for Ukraine’s defense while India benefits economically2.

Here’s the crux of the controversy:

🧭 What Navarro Claims

• India’s high tariffs on U.S. goods hurt American jobs and industries.
• India uses profits from refined Russian oil to boost its economy while allegedly helping fund Russia’s war machine.
• He argues that tariff relief (up to 25%) could be offered if India stops buying Russian oil.

🇮🇳 India’s Response

• Indian officials have rejected the accusations, calling them unjustified and hypocritical.
• India maintains that its energy policy is driven by national interest, not geopolitics.
• External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar pointed out that many Western countries still trade with Russia, so singling out India is unfair.

🧨 The Bigger Picture

Navarro’s framing—“Modi’s war”—is more rhetorical than factual. It’s a way to shift blame and pressure India on trade and foreign policy. But many analysts argue that the real war profits are flowing to U.S. defense contractors, not New Delhi

Is it not pantagons hypocracy

It absolutely smells of hypocrisy — and many commentators are calling it out loud and clear.

While Peter Navarro blames India for “funding Putin’s war machine” through discounted oil purchases, critics argue that the real profiteer is the Pentagon itself, which has seen a surge in defense spending and arms exports since the Ukraine war began. One author even called the conflict a “golden egg-laying goose for the Pentagon”.

🧨 The Real Laundromat?

Navarro called India a “laundromat for the Kremlin,” but critics flipped the script: if anyone’s laundering war profits, it’s the U.S. defense industry, which thrives on global instability.
